Old R2 Buckets are one of the most common sources of wasted cloud spend in Cloudflare. They often get left behind when instances are terminated or projects are deleted.

The Manual Way (Hard)

To find these manually in Cloudflare Console:

  1. Log in to the Cloudflare Console.
  2. Navigate to the Compute/Storage section.
  3. Filter for resources with status "Available" or "Unattached".
  4. Check the "Last Attached" date to ensure safety.
  5. Select and delete each one manually.

Repeating this for every region is tedious and error-prone.
